Serving Beet Hummus
My favorite thing to eat any hummus with is pita chips. I could eat a whole bag. That said, this has all the makings of a healthy dip recipe with its base ingredients. So if you want to keep it all healthier, serve this with veggies like cucumber slices, red peppers, and carrots. My favorite is the cucumber slices. “OMG! Beets are the best thing ever grown on this glorious planet.” Or “How dare you even suggest that someone eat that vile root from hell?!” People have big feelings when ti comes to beets, and I get it! I have big feelings too! I love beets. And so when I found out Beet Hummus was a thing, I knew I had to make it. Whenever I bring this to gatherings, it gets gobbled up. This recipe tastes a lot like the original hummus recipe that you know and love, but with a slight sweetness. It doesn’t taste as earthy as some of the other beet recipes you’ve had, but the sweetness of beets shines through. If you like making hummus at home, invest in a jar of tahini! It keeps for a while, and gives hummus its signature taste. Try it in my Edamame Hummus! Tahini is also a great ingredient for salad dressing! Experiment with it, you’ll fall in love.
Storing and Freezing
This delicious recipe for beet hummus is great right out of the food processor and even better after an hour in the refrigerator. Store it in the refrigerator in an air tight container for up to four days. To freeze this hummus recipe, put it in a container where it can expand just a little bit. Put it in the freezer for up to three months. When ready to eat it, allow it to thaw in the refrigerator overnight. As with all recipes, use your best discretion when it comes to leftovers.
